Mayor Michael Hancock’s $1.5 billion 2020 proposed budget received nearly unanimous approval by City Council on Tuesday night.

In an 11-1 vote, the mayor’s budget swiftly passed on the floor of Council, with Councilwoman Candi CdeBaca voting against the proposal, and Councilwoman Kendra Black momentarily absent from the vote.

“I do not approve of the process that was utilized to create the budget,” CdeBaca said, “and I will not be supporting this budget tonight.”

Hancock in a statement thanked the council for advancing his “balanced, fiscally responsible” budget.

“This budget puts our residents’ priorities front and center – improving support for those experiencing homelessness, building a mobility system to reduce traffic congestion, combating climate change, and ensuring all neighborhoods are safe,” Hancock said. “This budget builds equity into its very core, all while preparing our city for an uncertain economy in the future.”

Hancock had accepted seven of the 18 budget revisions that had received support from a council super-majority.

Not included were changes from CdeBaca, who targeted his 2020 budget proposal — and the process — during a City Council meeting Nov. 4.

The Democratic first-year officeholder had presented eight budget requests as part of the “beginning of a long-term effort to change the way Denver city budgets are done in 2021 and beyond,” but her funding priorities received little to no support from her colleagues on the council floor.

CdeBaca sought the support of her colleagues to fund $230,000 for portable toilets and storage lockers for people experiencing homelessness; $50,000 for trash and needle receptacles; $200,000 to expand the Denver Day Works program; a quarter-million dollars for solar panel subsidies; $100,000 in aid for small business affected by the expansion of Interstate 70; $20,500 for the Office of Aging; and $2 million to purchase a building suitable for community corrections.

Hancock approved, at least in part, seven adjustments that could be supported with one-time funding .

Per the council’s recommendations, Hancock’s administration approved a $125,000 increase of tiny home village supportive services; reallocated half a million dollars for safe mobility and transportation options to schools; set aside $30,000 to expand the District 1 community office; upped the Office of Aging budget by $50,000; reallocated $730,000 to the city’s Vision Zero effort to end traffic fatalities; increased housing and rental support by $1 million; and added $1.5 million toward city sidewalk improvement projects.

“This is a budget focused on our people and their needs, and the residents of Denver can be proud of the work that has gone into this spending plan,” Hancock said.
